Doolittle's Avenging Strike
by
Robert Bailey
On April 18, 1942, General James H. Doolittle led a strike against the Japanese homeland from the US carrier HORNET. They bombed military targets and then dispersed to China and Russia.
This momentous event served to avenge Pearl Harbor and shock the Japanese. These courageous flyers will be forever recorded in the annals of history.
This picture shows the raid from the Japanese point of view!
Probably a 'first' in all paintings depicting this strike!
